In Native American teachings, Turtle is the oldest symbol for planet Earth. Some of the qualities of the turtle are patience, self boundaries, self reliance, navigation, and connection with center. In this camp our theme is that of going deeper, getting to know more dearly this earth we walk, and getting to know ourselves in Earthplay. Turtle also symbolizes community, and so through art, music, cooking and play we devote ourselves to better getting to know others. You don’t have to be experienced, you just have to be willing to experience. Activities may include stone and wood art, knife safety, fire safety and cooking, naturalist skills and deep woods games.
